Muller: I am not leaving Bayern

The versatile attacker has dismissed suggestions that he could leave his current club for Barcelona after a recent visit to the Catalan capital

Thomas Muller has insisted that he has no intention of leaving Bayern Munich as he is happy with life at the Bundesliga champions.

The Germany international, 24, was recently linked with a move to Barcelona after visiting the Catalan capital, but has stressed that a transfer to the Spanish powerhouse is not an option at this stage of his career.

"Of course, it is flattering when you're being linked to a club like Barcelona.

"I am very happy at Bayern, though. Bayern mean a lot to me and have a place in my heart. I hope to stay at Bayern for many more years to come."

Muller's contract with the Bavarian outfit runs until June 2017, and has been only one of a few German players to be linked with Gerardo Martino's men recently, including Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels.
